Sounds of Eighty Six, Volume 45 with William France

We made it down to the basement to record another edition of the show and for this one we were joined in the studio by special guest, William France.

Will is well know in craft beer circles for his involvement in some of Manchester's finest bars, such as Common, Port St, The Beagle; managing events like IMBC, Tap & Pin (Sheffield) and working at brewers Cloudwater and Summer Wine.

We've had a connection with Will both musically and as friends, DJ'ing at his venues and the events he's involved with. He's also come from behind the bar to play at Eighty Six, both on the show and with us at the Outlaws Yacht Club.

On Saturday 19th of November, we're playing the afternoon session at the Brewers Market at Canal Mills over in Leeds. So to give you a taster of the event Will came down and played a few selections alongside us.

So what have we got for you? aside from Will's mix, there's plenty of new finds we've picked up over the summer. Plus we've got a preview track from the new Aficionado Recordings EP. It's a collaboration with Manchester clothing label Good Measure and features Manchester artists (some known, others unknown to us). There's also new music from around the world, with L.U.C.A on the Italian label Mondo, a mantra from India, space-rock from Germany and we end on a re-released New Beat track from Belgium, which is also where we start from.
